Subject: [IMail Forum] An update on SPF
Hi Everyone,
I've been out of the loop for a while, but would now like to ask the imail
community -- is the SPF-worth-it debate settled down? Is it worth the
time
now to set up SPF records, and is it reducing spam? We have about 100
domains, and setting up SPF for all of them will be time consuming, but if
it is now implemented and used by enough ISPs/etc., we have the time and
resources to do it at this point. Just looking for opinions... But let's
not turn this into a flamefest or anything :)
The only reason we have SPF records is so that our mail gets delivered to
large services like AOL and Hotmail. As to using it for filtering, it's
never fulfilled its promise sufficiently that I'd do any more than use it
for a bit of positive weighting. I sure the hell wouldn't reject an email
because of a lack of an SPF record.
